There is several possible variants of NLP8, the one i usually play in real life is the following

-You start with 3 holecards and 2 community cards
-after the flop there is 3 holecards/player and 5 community cards.
-after the turn there is 3 holecards/player and 7 community cards.
-after the river there is 3 holecards/player and 8 community cards

When 5 cards are selected of 8 for a hand, 65 deck card, you will get a straight 8% of the time and flush 3% of the time, flush will become more rare than full house (due to full house becomming more common).

The issue with the current setup is that it rewards passive players (everyone at the table will benefit from big pot, not just the ones playing) and you cannot win much more than the amount of money you buy in for.

As a kid i got the idea to increase the number of cards for a hand to 8 allowing you to get hands such as "double 4 of a kind". I have been working on a scoring system for when you select 8 cards out of 11 for a hand, i just made a revision to the rules and it might be finished now (not the first time i am thinking that obviously).

I have tested this game with temporary rules and it was a lot of fun, most people prefer my game over NLHE.

Do you have any ideas for this?

What about launching this game on runitonce.eu ?
